Please make money.

Ailia counted on her fingers seriously: "I plan to invest in a science fiction film and then use product placement to advertise our products, but the film itself must be of good quality. More importantly, I want to use actors with good acting skills to star in it, not actors with high traffic or young and handsome faces. In the final analysis, a movie is a movie, and product placement is a need, but it is not the purpose."

"Okay, I think I understand what you mean. So what is the estimated investment amount?"

“Is this enough?” Arya held up a finger.

"If it costs 100 million, it is indeed a big production."

"...A science fiction film, my aunt, one billion, as long as the script satisfies me, I want to invest in it alone!"

"???"

……

……

"She, Alia, just has some filthy money. What can she do to me?"

At the exit of the international airport, Liu Shouzheng's face flushed, he had a quarrel with the person on the other end of the phone, then hung up the phone angrily.

He turned his head and spat, sending his assistant away: "Go, contact the car - damn, how could it turn out like this?!"

Xiao Liu went abroad, but not completely.

His trip abroad this time was to attend an exhibition that had already been scheduled, at the invitation of San Diego Advanced Communications Technology Company.

This was a normal business trip abroad and no one stopped him, so it went smoothly.

But things at home were so chaotic that he was in no good mood and just felt a headache.

He has been under joint investigation by seven departments during this period - seven!

Even when he went abroad this time, people repeatedly asked him if he wanted to run away.

He said all my assets are in the country, where can I go?

The other party said, "Have some respect, don't think we don't know how much money you have hidden in your accounts," and then reported the account numbers.

Xiao Liu said that he had indeed spoken too loudly before, and that this trip abroad was a scheduled exhibition itinerary long ago.

He passed the review with great difficulty and went abroad to participate in the exhibition. As soon as he landed, someone reminded him to be careful and watch out for Alia.

Xiao Liu was so angry - you, Alia, just have some big guys protecting you in your country, so isn't that my home turf abroad?

He turned around and went to the bathroom to take care of some personal matters, but when he came out swinging his hands and making a phone call, he discovered that his assistant had gone to contact a car and seemed to have disappeared, and had not returned for almost ten minutes.

...What do you mean? Is it so difficult to call a car?

If it had happened two months earlier, the administrative staff of Shenggao would have come to me in a luxury car and asked me to say, "Mr. Liu, please come this way!"

When people leave, the tea gets cold. When people leave, the tea gets cold - Xiao Liu was so angry that he changed his contact number.

But before the call was made, a team of armed special agents set up martial law at the exit.

Xiao Liu thought something had gone wrong and quickly made way, thinking that things were quite chaotic abroad.

But he didn't expect that those people would stop right in front of him, with the muzzles of their guns pointed directly at him.

"What happened? What happened?" Xiao Liu raised his hands: "Misunderstanding! Did you recognize the wrong person?"

"Probably not." As the voice fell, a woman in high heels came out and compared it with the photo: "You are the only one called Xiao Liu?"

"……you are?"

"My wife has prepared a welcome banquet at the farm and has been waiting for you for a long time."

The other party smiled and straightened his collar: "Welcome to North America."

"Do I, do I know you guys?"

"We'll get to know each other later. Let me introduce myself. My wife's surname is Qin. She is very happy that you can come to North America."

"But I heard that you made things difficult for her children in your country." The woman leaned close to his ear and whispered, "The lady is very unhappy..."

321-From Krypton to Khitan, Alia's name has been known

A manor is just a manor.

But the estate was far away, so they drove all the way there.

Xiao Liu was trembling with fear and wanted to call the police for help several times, but he was afraid that the other party would shoot him on the spot.

These people are not good people at all!

What's wrong with this world? They just broke into the airport with guns and robbed people, and no one cared? I was so angry that I was crying!

Fortunately, the man who claimed to be an assistant didn't mind his behavior. He just smiled and watched and let him do what he wanted.

"You know, there is systemic management breakdown everywhere in this land."

The assistant handed Xiao Liu a glass of champagne, and seemed to be oblivious to the tall, expressionless men on both sides who squeezed Xiao Liu in the middle.

"You may be thinking that you know some corporate executives and some people in the Executive Office, so this is your territory."

The other party signaled and the convoy stopped halfway.

Not far away on the street is the Los Angeles Police Department's branch. The LAPD logo is large and conspicuous.

"If you need anything, you can contact them, please."

The assistant signaled that he could start his performance.

LAPD can be said to be one of the largest law enforcement agencies in the United States, with nearly 10,000 field operators alone.

Moreover, compared with Donghuang, the police officers on the Hezhong side are not so gentle. They will empty the magazine directly if they disagree with something.

The other side even has its own SWAT special forces, as well as a fleet of helicopters and fixed-wing aircraft.

"..."

"Come, I'll show you." Seeing Xiao Liu's resistance, the other party personally called a patrol officer over.

After the other party saw the signal, he quickly trotted over and held his hat: "Madam, what can I do for you?"

"This gentleman is unfamiliar with the current environment. I need you to send someone to escort the vehicle and help us clear the way."

The patrol officer looked at Xiao Liu and nodded repeatedly: "Of course, ma'am, it's our honor."

After saying that, he pressed the communicator on his shoulder to contact his colleagues, and soon a convoy of cars drove out from the LAPD police station, mixing on the left and right.

Eight motorcycles turned on their flashing lights and led the way, and for a moment the momentum was unmatched.

"My wife - or maybe you can think of her as my mistress - donates at least $5 million to the LAPD every year. Her dinner invitation is the LAPD Foundation's favorite invitation because their demands can be met - do you know what this means?"

Xiao Liu's eyes twitched, which meant that the LAPD's welfare could even be said to be issued by the other party's master.

These people eat each other's food, so of course they have to do things for each other. Why would they care about each other's life or death?

"No, no, no, your expression tells me that you don't know what this means...Okay, we can take it a step further."

The assistant picked up the phone at hand and called a place that sounded like the security department, asking them to send an escort.

Xiao Liu clenched his fists and wanted to say, "You come and go just to get people to come, what's that?"

But soon after, he widened his eyes and looked at the black spots that began to appear on the sunroof of the vehicle.

"You can regard this as a less than pleasant welcome ceremony. My host is very concerned about your extreme behavior."

The assistant reiterated: "Her children need competition and training, but not to be disgusted. You shouldn't come out."

"..."

"Sir, what do we need to do?"

"Let's set off some fireworks for Mr. Liu, and have a helicopter land to pick us up. It's too slow. Madam's time is precious, and there's no time to waste it here."

"Yes Sir!"

……

……

"Look at this, Miss! Can this be used as inspiration for the photo shoot?"

An Lele pointed at the computer and said, "In the United States, Los Angeles, a suspected military conflict broke out. Dozens of military helicopters were hovering in downtown Los Angeles, accompanied by strange explosions. For several hours, no relevant agency gave an explanation for what happened."

"What do you mean? Downtown?"

Alia leaned over to look at the comment section and found that this matter was quite popular.

At least one helicopter landed on Wiltshire Boulevard in downtown Los Angeles, and explosions could be heard across the city.

Many people posted messages on social media to talk about this matter, with all kinds of comments.

Netizen @MizSkellington lamented: "What the hell is that?! Is it a military helicopter? It's too close to us."

Netizen @MaryV4120 said: "Is a fight going to break out? Interesting, I have been disappointed with this boring world for too long! 」

Netizen @AlexStrezev said: "Downtown Los Angeles is never boring."

A P-8A Poseidon reconnaissance aircraft circled over the city for several hours. This high-performance reconnaissance aircraft, known as the "submarine killer", also sparked discussions from all sides.

Netizen @AircraftSpots wrote: "This is so weird! The P-8A Poseidon is flying around downtown Los Angeles at 2 feet!"

Alia stroked her chin and looked at it for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion suspiciously: "Are they trying to catch the Hulk?"

I mean, the plot seems quite familiar, like the experimental subject ran away, and then a big battle broke out in the city.

Shortly afterwards, the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) belatedly issued a statement saying that this was just a drill.

Military members have informed the local police station and the Executive Yuan about this "military training" activity.

"The purpose of the training is to improve the skills of soldiers by operating in different urban environments."

The Los Angeles Police Department said so, and emphasized that "safety precautions" have been taken to prevent "unnecessary danger to participants or residents and property in the area."

Although local news reports said the operation was a surprise exercise aimed at keeping the troops agile.

But the Los Angeles Police Department claims that residents near the training site will be notified in advance.

However, they apparently didn't inform everyone, as locals posted messages on Twitter in panic, trying to figure out what was going on.

This military exercise, which will also involve special forces, will last until Saturday.

Although City Hall said it chose downtown Los Angeles for the exercise to simulate an urban environment that might be encountered during overseas deployments.

But many locals worry that the military is doing this to train for missions closer to home.

As for where is the place close to home...haha.

After reading it, Alia was quite disappointed: "If I were shooting a superhero theme, these styles would really come in handy."

"So the script isn't about superheroes? It's science fiction!"

"For now, the choices are heavy industrial science fiction, the kind that have grand narratives."

Alia took out two scripts and was a little confused about which one to choose.

One is a project that is already underway, called Wandering Blue Star.

After all, in this world line, the original name of the little broken ball is Blue Star, which is very reasonable.

As for the director, it is very likely that he is a Cyber ​​Daji that Alia knows.

He is the kind of person who begs for alms everywhere, and if the crew sees a dog passing by, they will have to take a piece of meat and bone as a token to escape.

The other crew is currently under a lot of pressure, with no money, no people, and no experience.

The reason why she was able to get this script was because Aunt Zhou knew the director. Yes, this director used to make commercials.

He not only shoots commercials, but also youth romance movies, the sweet and sour kind, but then he turned around and started shooting science fiction.

Others are very confused. Don’t you have path dependence?

Why shoot sci-fi? You're good at shooting commercials. If that's not possible, that youth romance movie also has good box office and reputation.

No one knows what he is thinking, but the gap is so huge that Aunt Zhou is not very optimistic about this matter.

However, the two parties had a basis for cooperation, and Aunt Zhou thought the other party was a good person and the notebook was also OK, so she brought it over.

When I looked at the specific list of directors, I was surprised to see that there were twenty-five people in total.

A crew of 25 people, from the director to the set director to the costume and makeup props to the casting to the actor coordination, plus the script supervisor, planner, and B-rented director...

Let's put it this way, this thing is just a rickety old house. If one of the people in it is kicked out, the house will collapse.

After all, the director team is responsible for specific projects. These are not paid entertainers, so they can be replaced if the filming fails.
